London: A History in Maps promises to reveal the capital's inside story

London: A History in Maps promises to reveal the capital's inside storyLondon: A History in Maps, published today, examines how the capital has transformed itself from a small, walled town, into one of the world's most dynamic cities over the last 2000 years. Telling the story through a fantastic series of maps, many from the British Library's collections and seen here for the first time, it charts the development of the capital from the first known image on a coin in 297 AD, right up to the present day and the lasting legacy the Olympic games will have on the cultural and geographical make-up of the city
